AWFUL!!!,

This review is from: Just Going to the Dentist (Little Critter) (Golden Look-Look Books) (Paperback)
I work in a Pediatric Dental practice. I ordered this book for my son and for his class, my niece and nephews. I threw them all away b/c they show the needle, which NEVER happens and is one way to get your child to be afraid of going to the dentist. In the end, Little Critter gets a lollipop for being so good, and granted the jar in the background says "Sugar Free", preschool aged kids cannot read. I was very disappointed b/c I love Little Critter, but not a good idea to get your child excited about going to the dentist.

excellent preparation for the first trip to the dentist,

This review is from: Just Going to the Dentist (Little Critter) (Golden Look-Look Books) (Paperback)
Mayer has done it again! Delightful pictures and simple text prepare any child for their first dentist trip. My two year old insisted on hearing the story dozens of times before her first appointment and was prepared once we arrived at the office. The only problem we had was that our dentist is not a rabbit!

Not such a great book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Just Going to the Dentist (Little Critter) (Golden Look-Look Books) (Paperback)
I found this book to be a little too much for my 4 year old. I did not like the fact that the book says 'it will not hurt' and shows a picture of a needle for novacaine shot. I realize the shots are probably inevitable, but telling a child it will not hurt is unrealistic. I should have read the content before I purchased the book.
